Description : Gateway Classic Cars of Orlando is proud to present this beautiful 1972 Plymouth Barracuda. In the early 70s the muscle car world was under attack by crackdowns from the EPA and the insurance industry. While the regulators put on the pressure, good ole Mopar pressed on as long as they could with high output cars like this Cuda. This last year Barracuda is handsomely dressed in a Bright Yellow paint that was completely stripped and repainted about 1 year ago according to the consignor. The interior is all muscle car with its front bucket seats flanking a center console with shifter. Under the hood is just what the doctor ordered, a big old fashioned 440 V8 with a 4-barrel carb that was recently rebuilt with barely any miles on it. Paired with its 3-speed automatic imagine how this Barracuda can get up and go! This Cuda has been well loved and is ready for its new home. If you're looking for a sweet example of the last of the muscle cars this is the one you want to own! Features include Dakota Digital gauges, new headers and exhaust system, dual fans for engine. AM/FM/CD radio, spare tire, power brakes, power steering, jack, vinyl interior and original wheels wrapped in radial tires.
